STEPHENVILLE (December 13, 2017) — How many coffee cans will it take to produce the same volume of noise as the propane bottles the Yellow Jacket football can fans are infamous for shaking?

We may soon find out.

Stephenville returns to AT&T Stadium this week for the first time since winning the school’s fifth state football championship in 2012.

The Yellow Jackets (12-2) face Kennedale (13-1) in a 4A Division I semifinal at 5 p.m. Friday. The winner advances to face Carthage or Waco La Vega in the state final at AT&T Stadium at 11 a.m. the following Friday, December 22.

Fans are warned, many rules have changed at the stadium nicknamed “Jerry World,’ and ‘The Big House,’ and still known best as “Cowboys Stadium.”

No propane bottles or any noise makers larger than large coffee cans will be allowed in the stadium, and that won’t be your first upsetting surprise if you aren’t prepared.

The stadium has a clear bag policy, meaning with any kind of bag including purses, stadium officials at public entrances must be able to see through the material to the contents inside. Also, no long lenses for cameras will be permitted without pre-approved media credentials.

Tickets can be purchased ahead of time through Ticketmaster online for $12 plus a small fee. (use hyperlink to order and print yours now.)

All tickets are $15 at the gate, and no district passes will be accepted. Every fan older than 1 year must have a ticket.

Parking will be upsetting to many at a rate $15 per vehicle if paid in cash and $10 if paid by debit or credit card, minimizing the amount of cash parking tenants are responsible for.

Stephenville is the visiting team, positioning Yellow Jacket fans on the north side of stadium.

Fans are welcome to stay for the night cap between 5A powers Highland Park and Denton Ryan, both former playoff opponents of Stephenville. However, officials ask that when the early game is complete, fans of those schools make room in prime seating areas for fans of the late game. Highland Park is sharing the north side with Stephenville.

Stephenville first played at what was then named Cowboys Stadium in 2009 against Aledo and also played in the $1.2 billion facility in 2011 against Trophy Club Byron Nelson and the 2012 championship when they put an exclamation point at the end of a dominating playoff run by torching El Campo 70-35.
